Would that “shield” prevent US agencies from accessing data related to EU citizens?
- SpicyLemonZest 4y agoThe GDPR doesn't require that foreign law enforcement agencies should never be allowed to access personal data. There just have to be equivalent legal protections to what a EU citizen would get from their local law enforcement agencies. There are already a solid handful of countries (https://gdpr-info.eu/issues/third-countries/ https://gdpr-info.eu/issues/third-countries/) where data transfer is considered secure and I don't see any reason it should be impossible to negotiate a US return to the list.
- lokedhs 4y agoThat's what it's supposed to do. Well, perhaps not prevent it, but add oversight and the ability to appeal. The US is obviously not going to do this, so whatever agreement they come up with is bound to be struck down just like the previous two were.
